Brief Summary

This study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of ACUCLOT Biopolymer Hemostatic Sponge in controlling acute hemorrhage due to trauma. ACUCLOT is a biopolymer-based, non-absorbable hemostatic sponge designed to stop moderate to severe bleeding rapidly. This trial will evaluate the product’s efficacy in both out-hospital and in-hospital settings, focusing on metrics such as time to achieve hemostasis, blood loss, rebleeding incidents, and other side effects. The study will enroll 50 adult participants with trauma-induced hemorrhage and compare ACUCLOT’s performance against conventional cotton gauze, with assessments made at baseline and follow-up after 48 hours. Overall Conclusion The results of this clinical study clearly demonstrate that the AcuClot Biopolymer-Based Hemostatic Sponge is a significantly more effective, faster-acting, and better-tolerated alternative to conventional Cotton Gauze for the management of acute traumatic bleeding. Among the 50 enrolled participants (25 per group), AcuClot consistently outperformed Cotton Gauze across critical efficacy endpoints. A significantly higher proportion of patients in the AcuClot group achieved hemostasis within 3 minutes (68.00%) compared with Cotton Gauze (37.21%, p = 0.0081), with 20.00% of AcuClot-treated patients achieving hemostasis in under 1 minute compared with only 2.33% in the Cotton Gauze group. The mean total blood loss was also substantially reduced with AcuClot (18.72 ± 6.18 mL) compared with Cotton Gauze (22.28 ± 5.59 mL, p = 0.0379). Furthermore, rebleeding events were rare in the AcuClot group, reported in only 1 patient (4.00%) versus 7 patients (28.00%) in the Cotton Gauze group (p = 0.0206). In addition to superior clinical outcomes, patient-reported measures strongly favored AcuClot. The mean satisfaction score was markedly higher in the AcuClot group (9.64 ± 0.49) compared with Cotton Gauze (6.24 ± 0.66, p < 0.0001). Moreover, 96.00% of AcuClot-treated participants stated they were “very likely” to recommend the product, while no participants in the Cotton Gauze group provided the same response. Importantly, none of the AcuClot group required pressure-based additional interventions, compared with 20.00% in the Cotton Gauze group (p = 0.0160), further underscoring its reliability as a stand-alone hemostatic solution. AcuClot also demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile. No adverse device-related events, allergic reactions, or complications were observed in either group. Wound healing and recovery were comparable between groups, with all participants achieving complete healing without complications, and most resuming normal physical activity within 24–48 hours. These findings confirm that AcuClot’s advanced hemostatic capabilities do not negatively impact the natural healing process. Collectively, the integration of these clinical and patient-reported outcomes establishes AcuClot as a first-line hemostatic agent in trauma care. Its ability to achieve faster hemostasis, reduce blood loss, minimize rebleeding, and provide superior patient satisfaction, all while maintaining excellent safety, positions it as a valuable advancement in hemorrhage management with the potential to improve patient outcomes and elevate standards of emergency and surgical care. |
